Physicians and Staff

John A. "Jack" Michalski, MD

“Orthopedics is the most challenging and exciting field of medicine. More than any other discipline, orthopedics most improves quality of life. Precision, hard work and constant attention to detail pays off for my patients. I see how it touches patients and their families. My dedication to wellness and anti-aging is a natural extension of my deep caring and concern for my patients.”

Paula Lucas MPAS, PA-C

“I enjoy helping others and I have always been interested in medicine and science. In orthopedics, it’s awesome to see a patient with a worn-out arthritic knee or hip get back their range of motion and their life while eliminating their pain.”

Susan Michalski, RN, BSN

“The nursing profession is dynamic, creative and technical. I’ve always been people-oriented. I love people, and I love helping them help themselves restore, maintain and promote health and healthy habits.”
